Escale en Haiti is a rich, sparking hymn to vetiver, one of the most beloved ingredients in perfumery. In many ways it is a family of fragrances in its own, such is its popularity and addictive permutations of scent. Like grape varieties, tea, iris rhizomes and vanilla, the concept of terroir has become important, with country of origin, soil and weather conditions and local agricultural practices playing a vital part in shaping the odour of the ingredients.
Apply fragrance to clean skin after showering, targeting pulse points such as wrists and behind the neck for optimal scent diffusion. Use a non-scented moisturizer first to prolong fragrance life. Avoid direct application on clothes and sensitive skin to prevent irritation and preserve the integrity of the scent.
